   No, I'm not.  I do know that Pavtube examines the disk and "filters"   
   looking for the movie file.  I suppose it's possible it's reading the   
   disk menu and assembling the titles based on that.   
      
   But then why would some of the seasons have the episodes presented out   
   of order and some not?  It's not a per-disk effect I'm seeing there,   
   it's a per-season thing.   
      
   BTW, just popped season 5 disk 1 in, and the episodes are in the   
   correct order.
